Hello and welcome to the price of football, the show that looks at the money, the high

and the beautiful game of me Kevin Day and the three of us is Kira McGuire-Q and how are you on this

horrible, horrible morning? It's, it's very hot indeed so yeah I got up extra early to take

Finn B for a walk because he doesn't like, he doesn't like chasing squirrels when it's too hot

but yeah well it won't last, it won't last, it's, it's a bit like the way that you feel about

writing stuff for the season. It's not that good, you're only a point above us, you're not

good, yeah I'm currently watching Smudge, bless her, she's trying to adjust herself so that her head

which is mainly black fur is in the shade and her tummy which is mainly white fur is in the sun

and she's not, she's not having much success, nobody likes chasing squirrels in the hot weather

Kira and it's just, it's, no it's got the energy for it, but the squirrels know it, the squirrels

have been taunting her, it's Newsday Kira and there aren't that many news stories compared to the

last couple of weeks but a couple of them are very big, especially the first one, the story coming

out of Manchester United which is really upset Gary Neville. Yes this was a story that was broken

by Nick Harris and Alex Miller at the mail on Sunday, effectively on Saturday night and it

indicated that the glazes were thinking of pulling out of selling the club because the asking

price that they felt was appropriate was 10 billion pounds and nobody's seen that quoted before,

I think the, the offers which had been discussed and were being mooted by

Shake Jazeem and Jim Ratcliffe were in the region of 5 and a half billion so quite a long way away

from this price which has come from nowhere and that provoked a pretty hostile reaction from

the likes of Gary Neville, who is his keen to see the club sold and of course a significant

amount of the Manchester United fan base. Where they get this figure of 10 billion pounds from

is somewhere which I can't fathom out, I like a spreadsheet as you know and I like crunching
